beskrivelse:
GULF OF ADEN (June 2, 2009) Royal Marines embarked aboard the Royal Navy frigate HMS Portland (F 79) investigate two suspected pirate skiffs in the Gulf of Aden. The skiffs, with 10 people aboard, were equipped with extra barrels of fuel, grappling hooks and a cache of weapons that included rocket propelled grenades, machine guns and ammunition. Due to insufficient evidence to directly link the group to a specific attack, the suspected pirates were disarmed and released. Portland destroyed one of the skiffs and confiscated the weapons.
